This is going to be epic!

Can you think of any two people that the Left loathes more right now?

Would not be surprised if they try to shut this down.

Guy Fawkes Day (Election Day too) might just take on a whole new meaning in the USA.

First of many donations done. I contributed pretty heavily to him in 2016 and 2020. I might end up exceeding that this election.

Immediately, after the devastating attack on Pearl Harbor, while the Japanese were celebrating their great victory, Admiral Isoroku Yamamoto said to them:

"I fear all we have done is to awaken a sleeping giant and fill him with a terrible resolve."

Yesterday was the Democrats great victory. From here on, they face a terrible resolve.

For the most part, we knew this was coming. We hoped for a hung jury but it didn't happen. Of course knowing all the crap Judge Corruption did, I would not have been surprised IF he would have replaced any jurors holding out with an alternate (no that is not suppose to happen in a trial but a lot of crap that isn't suppose to happen in a trial did. Also the alternates were still being held in the courthouse, every other time they are dismissed when the jury goes back for deliberations). So the Dims have hurt our country, destroyed our standing and our brand worldwide. Hey, they started it with the Afghan Fuck Up and continued it through yesterday. I watched Gutfeld last night and Kevin O'Leary and Tyrus had some excellent points. Tyrus said we got punched in the mouth by this but we don't riot and destroy things because we work and we build this country. All this did was make me look forward to standing in line to vote November 5th so, God willing, President Trump can start draining that fucking swamp, starting with the DOJ, Pentagon (aka Penisgon), and State Department. I am off to donate to President Trump.


UPDATED: Just saw this video by Mark Dice which brings up the Judge being able to replace a hold out juror:

Some suggest Biden should step in and pardon Trump. The legality of that aside, this is scary. FJB would come across as decent (a recent narrative they're pushing) but a hollow gesture knowing other kangaroo courts are in the wings waiting to do their dirty work.

In United States v. Wilson (1833), the U.S. Supreme Court held that a pardon can be rejected by the intended recipient and must be affirmatively accepted to be officially recognized by the courts.

Even when the website crashed for awhile, the Trump campaign raised an astounding 35 million dollars last night before midnight. 30% from first time donors.

^^^^ The President can pardon a crime against the US (a federal crime), not a crime against a state.

Only crimes against the US are pardonable by the president. State crimes are pardonable either by the governor.


The NY gov could pardon him since it would probably help Joe from falling further in the polls, and it's giving Trump a huge boost. She won't because she's narrow focused on being a party hack.

Still, Trump isn't going to jail, at least not anytime soon and certainly not before the election. He has 30 days starting today to file his Notice of Appeal and once filed, he has six months to file it - well past November.

Twice impeached and now 34 guilty counts. Trump is going to wear them as BADGES OF HONOR during the coming Election cycle.

Like I told my retired buddies at coffee, some of whom are Trump haters, no matter what happens to Trump, whether he goes to prison or not, I’m still not voting for Biden. Kind of got quiet around the table as it dawned on the anti-Trumpers that it doesn’t change shit.

Take this as an opportunity to directly ask the people in our lives if they are registered to vote. If not, you can do it online: https://www.vote.org/register-to-vote

I think it could become part of his new logo and branding, and knowing the man he’s probably planning that. Make them regret doing this and make them eat it.

Back on election day 2016 I proudly walked around the entire day wearing this large button that I got from a local conservative radio station that said “I’M A DEPLORABLE”

I've never understood a judge expecting a found-guilty defendant to be contrite and basing their sentence on that. If the defendant maintains their innocence, there's nothing to be sorry for. If they say sorry, that's admitting guilt. That's my rationale anyway.

I don't see Trump or want Trump to be contrite. I don't want that judge to have any sense of having something over on Trump. It sickens me to think of the scenario of that judge basking in the position of having Trump ask for mercy. But will not being contrite cost Trump jail time, or conversely, could it save him jail time?

I know I'm looking at the small picture. A lot of you see this as a plus and all working out in the end. I don't want Trump in jail. For what that man has gone through since 2020, to now possibly being in jail, it's such bullshit.

Mark Levin Has Some Legal Advice for Team Trump

After former President Donald Trump was convicted by a judge and jury on 34 felonies Thursday afternoon, which were resurrected from misdemeanors past the statutes of limitations and upgraded as charges by Manhattan District Attorney Alvin Bragg, constitutional law attorney and conservative radio host Mark Levin has some advice about what to do next.

Levin is urging Trump to get the case out of New York and to the Supreme Court as soon as possible. From a post on X:

The issue is how to get out of the New York system and bring the case to the Supreme Court, which may or may not take it up. That is why I look to Bush v Gore, where the S Ct decided to step in BECAUSE it was a presidential election. There was another court involved, the Florida Supreme Court. And it was that court that the Supreme Court believed was violating the Equal Protection Clause. That was the doctrine it settled on, given the unequal treatment of voters.

In New York, you would file the notice of appeal, ask for a stay of the trial court, and seek expedited review. You need to protect your ability to timely appeal and not abandon it. You might then file applications for common law writs with the US Supreme Court, where the S Ct can take action if it chooses, and legitimately claim the harm is immediate and ongoing not just to a presidential candidate, but to the federal electoral system, federal campaign jurisdiction (reverse federalism), and the precedent that might otherwise be set and spread throughout the country. The denial of due process infected every aspect of the case.

The S Ct has common law powers (common law writs -- judicially created not statutorily created) it uses very sparingly, in extraordinary circumstances, to grant relief. Waiting would compound the problem. The problem now is that every day that goes by, the actions by the NY lower court bleeds into the federal, presidential election system.

Where does this end? Will other DA's use the Bragg-Merchan precedent, such as it is, going forward, and not care what higher state courts have to say, in that those courts may not act quickly or at all. So, now local prosecutors and state judges will intervene in presidential elections or any federal election.

We need to give the Supreme Court the opportunity to intervene. If it chooses not to, then it won't.

But between Jack Smith criminalizing election challenges to the point that we do not know what is or is not legal, and now Bragg and Merchan criminalizing events and activities that are not illegal, to the point we don't now know what they are, the Supreme Court, in my view, must do something.

In the end, the S Ct will not be able to avoid this forever. Better to deal with now than later, when it will get worse.
